DWTS’ First Victim and Paula Abdul’s 1000th Complaint

Dancing with the Stars’ new season hasn’t officially started yet, but the show is already losing celeb hoofers. Sort of. Yesterday Jewel announced that she might be forced to pull out of the TV dance competition due to a knee injury. The show’s eighth season premiere airs in less than two weeks and the singer says she is unsure she will be able to recover in time. Jewel made the announcement on her blog Wednesday saying that doctors diagnosed her with tendonitis in her knees and that she has started a course of medicine to help with the swelling. “I’m … Continue reading →

Former “American Idol” Contestant Found Dead Outside of Paula Abdul’s Home

In what’s being categorized as a “sad incident” by law enforcement officers, the body of a former “American Idol” contestant was found dead in a car near Paula Abdul’s Los Angeles home. According to news reports, 30-year-old Paula Goodspeed overdosed on drugs shortly after she parked her vehicle on a street outside of Abdul’s house Tuesday night. The Season 5 contestant was said to have been infatuated with the “American Idol” judge.

Paula Abdul Needs to Buy a Clue

Honestly, I strive to think of people in the best light possible (which is not to say that I’m always successful) but when it comes to thinking highly of Paula Abdul the word “challenging” becomes a severe understatement. In a previous blog I mentioned that Abdul secretly dreamed of and then made public her desire to compete on ABC’s smash hit “Dancing with the Stars.” Never mind that she is gainfully employed as a judge on Fox’s “American Idol.” (Though, how she remains so is still a mystery to me.) Well, Abdul can put away her dancing shoes because her … Continue reading →

American Idol News: Paula’s Blunder

If you watched American Idol last night, you might agree with Simon – it was “officially the strangest show we’ve ever done.” Last night, Ryan Seacrest told everyone that he or she would sing two songs. But, unlike the usual format, they would not hear from the judges until after the second song. Therefore, everyone sang his or her first song and it was a true snoozefest in my opinion. I thought my original favorite, Brooke White, would do great with Neil Diamond since she has a Carol King/Carly Simon feel to her singing. But no, she chose to sing … Continue reading →

Paula Abdul Should Quit While She is Ahead

Just when we all thought Paula Abdul’s 15 minutes were up an unknown singing competition came along and asked her to be a judge. Within a year’s time she became affiliated with one of the most popular shows in television history and her 15 minutes turned into an hour. Now the “American Idol” judge is looking to encroach on another hot TV competition—ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars.” For months now rumors have been flying that Abdul is in the process of making a deal with her bosses at FOX and execs with the mega-popular dancing contest so that she can … Continue reading →
